Jason,
        I've been installing base systems on a number of disks 
(rd7958) in the past couple hours. While installing the miniroot 
via NFS (NFS client for NT), I will ALWAYS get:

le_put: xmit error, buf 1
or
le_put: xmit error, buf 0

or combinations of both.

Is this bad?

Sometimes I get lots, sometimes very few. I've also varied network
distance: from ftp.wustl.edu, across our LAN, or 10' through a hub:
no difference.

Also, why is the miniroot copy so SLOW? It takes like 15min to copy
the whole thing; being 10240 blocks (512 byte blocks?) a normal
copy would take far less time, even over a network.

Thanx,
        Nate
